The property

2 Emma Place is an almost secret retreat, nuzzled tranquilly in the heart of the conservation area in Bodmin town.

Beautifully styled and presented, with original period features combining charisma and all the home comforts, this semi-detached villa-vibe house is a real gem.

Spacious accommodation greets you, with a separate sitting room boasting an open fire, ideal for those snuggle-in evenings during the cooler months, plus the attractive dining room creates social spaces for relaxation and food gatherings.

The kitchen is smart for creative cookery.

On the first floor, three bedrooms are sleep-inducing with good-looking decor and pretty, rural views over the town from the front bedrooms.

Shower or bathe in the family bathroom after a ramble or beach escapade.

Period slate flagstone floors, original tiled fireplaces and generous windows (the church bells sound amazing) add to the happy ambiance and let in a bounty of light throughout.

The fully enclosed sun-spot front garden has pathways and lawns for children and dogs to play safely, with garden table and chairs for dining and barbecues under blue skies.

There is a little courtyard with storage for cycles and surf gear.

Shops, good restaurants and food inns are all reached within paces, with several supermarkets a few minutes’ drive away.

About the location

BODMIN

Bodmin, the one-time County Town of Cornwall with its narrow streets, shops and pubs, is perfectly placed for exploring all that this fabulous holiday area has to offer. The outstanding surf, rugged cliffs and hidden coves of the north coast beaches and the quieter sands and river estuaries of the south coast are both 15 miles away while on the edge of town is the fascinating museum and haunting presence of the old Bodmin Jail. The popular Camel Trail for cyclists and walkers also winds its way through the town on its journey to the sea at Padstow. Close by are the open spaces and wind swept grandeur of Bodmin Moor while the incomparable Eden Project (11 miles), Falmouth’s National Maritime Museum (30 miles) and the beautiful harbour town of Padstow with its famous pubs and restaurants (16 miles) make for great days out. Also within easy reach and ideal for a fun-filled day out, guests can visit Lanhydrock House, the small town of Fowey and Charlestown with its Tall Ships. There is a good choice of country pubs and restaurants in the surrounding area.
